The whites are alwasy the upper class, in most places in latin america. The fact is that if millions of people were to come here, it would in effect be slum dwellers flooding over. There are not that many educated people that can come over here. Even if they did some how you have no way...

And how do you suggest one goes about changing this?

I'll respond to you first. The problem is that the US runs on a two party system. The paranoia against the NDP would be too great. When hoards of idiots are calling Obama a communist - wtf? - then just imagine what they would call the NDP? Super Communists? Then again, Alberta might rather...

I think we should abolish the governor position.

They started building them when their metro area had half a million people. So seriously, stop looking silly comparing tiny hamlets to big Toronto. Look at Berlin if you are interested in something closer for comparison. Oh but wait, maybe better you don't, to avoid a heart attack once you see...

But you said it's inevitable? Those should go to the developer. Thanks to the entrenched free market and this idea that private interests > public interests, developers more often than not do not need to pay these additional fees for building out in the cornfields. Hence we need to address...

Building a 13 km tram tunnel instead of a subway tunnel is insane. That is anti-transit. Am I? I think the liberal party is just as bad. Lets take a look at what transit city is going. Are they looking at real alternatives? No. They are trying to ram through their own plan, completely...

I really ask myself what kind of anarchosocialist are you. You sound like a rubber stamp for the engines of the free market. Whoa whoah whoah on there. So you are suggesting that it is inevitable? *throws up* Oh sorry did that fall on you? Intended actually. The fact is that suburbs do...

In Toronto I'd say that an insane disaster has happened. Development went beyond the regional government. We used to have closely coordinated transit with growth. But then in the 1980s suburbs beyond the regional government started killing that. So what I see going on is unplanned growth. I see...

I've been tellin' 'em to start posting flyers where-ever possible. We have to treat Tramsit City and the Miller office as a dictatorship. The bastards do not want public participation. They want token participation where they basically just inform us and then hope that we stfu. Oppose...

Eh, been away for a bit. Didn't forget you man. Never will. Basically to rehash what has been said... 1) There is no money for the infrastructure, from sewers from the crap to other things such as subways and so forth. Jobs, and whatnot... we just can't cope with such growth...

Dude, it makes perfect sense... raise the price to deter us from building more subways in the future.

I do believe that there is some incentive already for developers to build denser. It might make more sense in some ways, but you can not tell them do this or do that, unless if you want an authoritarian system. The only way to do this is to turn into stalin or something like that, and...
